Dante, the midpipe works perfect. Fit is good and the spring hooks are at right places.

Nice, Martin!

What are those heel plates you're using?

Quality is not that hot, when viewed up close the plates look like someone cut them out of old tank iron in their back yard.

@Martin_R
This is great news.... thanks for the pics!

I've been away for a while on business and the wetter here was crap, but I finally managed to make a couple of new photos with the NEW Arrow 3-2 pipes this past weekend, so here they are, ..hope you like'em:

Thanks Dante and Martin for the info,

Can you confirm that the only part needed to connect the cans is the mid pipe with the serial number that is on the attached thumbnails on Dante's post of page 4 of this thread?

I have a 05 that I'd like to fit those arrow cans to but my local dealers say they won't fit. I don't think they're trying hard enough!

Cheers.

If you want just the cans, all you need comes with the Triumph Arrow kit. Same kit works for all 1050 Triples. 2005 to 2008. This was also verified from Hinckley before I ordered the cans.

If you want the Arrow midpipe+cans, you need Triumph Arrow kit + Arrow midpipe kit for the 2005-2006 (71325MI). Midpipe for late 06 & 07 (the ones where header ends closer to bike's front) is 71370MI.

I have a 05 that I'd like to fit those arrow cans to but my local dealers say they won't fit. I don't think they're trying hard enough!

Your dealer has wrong info. Kit will fit on your 2005 as-is without any modding. If you use the Arrow midpipe, a bunch of the kit parts are just left out.

I haven't been able to road-test them yet because of the bad weather here, but they shure sound right

Here is a short movie of the exhaust without DB killers...

Dante, couple of questions about the exhaust. First, compared to stock, how is the sound both with and without the baffles. Also how did you re-tune the motor, did you do it or the dealer, and what map did you use?

@bobmcduff

The sound is good with the baffles in, a little dipper than with the stock exhaust, but it really gets better when you take them out, the sound is much dipper then and in my oppinion just right and not to loud.
I've been diving around with the baffles out for a couple of days, and the sound is really great.
It is not road legal that way where I live, but I think that if you can control your right wrist in the urban areas a little you could be OK.

I have to say, that before I had the tune downloaded the exhaust was in my opinion maybe drawing a little too much attention with all the backfireing especialy riding through town, which went away with the tune download. It still pops here and there but not nearly as much as with the stock exhaust or Arrows before the tune upgrade.

For now the dealer downloaded 'ARROW full system map with SAI', the difference in bike performance is quite noticeable, and also the poping on decel stoped, although I liked that

I do not know if there is any map available special for this setup yet, or what would be the best one to use. We will see on the feedbacks from other users.

Regards,
D.

Aha. So yours backfires a bit too with the duals?

I too am running a Arrows 3-1 based tune (a custom TuneBoy one, though) and sometimes when snapping throttle shut I get a small pop of flames from the exhaust.

No major explosion, more like someone popping a paper bag.
